Project name: The eastern Black sea environmental baseline survey, offshore republic of Georgia“ (2000) The meta-data sets EDMERP and EDMED are generated. At present the work has been in progress on about 400 CDI and corresponding ODV files, which will be presented in the nearest future. OBTAINED DATA: Sea water hydrochemistry: pH, salinity, temperature, Dissolved oxygen, TSS, dissolved metals (Fe, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cr, ), biogenic compounds (NO2, NO3, PO4, H2S), TPH. Sediment chemistry: metals (Fe, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cr), TPH Sediment grain size parameters Future Plans and Works

GAMMA has performed several Projects on submarine survey (sounding) in the frame of different projects. The 3D diagrams are prepared CDI and ODV files are being prepared.

Data Optimization of the Following Implemented Projects will be made Harbors (Batumi, Supsa, Kulevi, Poti) Development-Construction; Petroleum Hydrocarbons Transportation and Infrastructure; Hydrocarbons (Oil and Gas) Treatment; Hydro Power Energy and Energy Transmitting infrastructure; Highways Construction; Tourism Infrastructure

The following has been made for the mentioned projects: Environmental Audit Environmental Impact Assessment Environmental Risks Assessment Social Studies

The following Studies have been made : Air Quality; Water Quality (sea water, river water); Soil quality; Sediment quality; Bottom sounding; Biodiversity; Social researches.

GAMMA plans to upload reports about undertaken scientific-research works on Bibliography of Research Reports in the nearest future
